[postgis-users] Anything similiar to PostGIS for SQL Server?

[Ethan Alpert]

Heh...like I'm going to  wait around for "developers and spatial application vendors to build spatial solutions" and then have to pay money for it.
 
What a cop out the UDT concept is. 
 
Anyhow I see it as a good thing because by the time any real spatial capability will be available from proprietary sources everything else under the sun is going to be full OGC compliant.

		I heard that the new MSSQL ( Yukon ) will have spatial capabilities. but I don't know if this one will be OGC compliant, just like PostGIS is.
